Spicy Raspberry Crumble
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 12 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
- 2 cups flour
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 12 cup rolled oats
- 12 cup almond flour
- 12 cup slivered almonds
- 23 cup mashed raspberries
- 23 cup sugar
- 12-1 teaspoon cardamom
- Heat the oven to 375F.
- Grease a 9-inch square pan with butter or cooking spray.
- I like to use a square of baking paper on the bottom (eliminates the need for extra fat/oils).
- In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until they're well blended.
- Add the flour and salt and beat just until the dough forms clumps.
- Lightly flour your hands, then place the dough on a piece of waxed paper and squeeze it into a ball (the warmth of your hands will soften the dough enough to hold it together).
- Divide the dough into 3 parts.
- Crumble one part into a bowl and set it aside.
- Press the remaining 2 thirds evenly into the greased pan using the back of a spoon to smooth the surface.
- Bake ion the center oven rack until the edges are lightly golden, about 10 minutes or so.
- Congrads you now have your crumbly foundation to build on:).
- Set the pan on a wire rack.
- While the shortbread cools, in a saucepan combine 1/2 of the cardamon and mashed berries.
- Heat them until they reach a full rolling boil.
- approximately 2 minute.
- Add sugar.
- Stir.
- Now Bring that to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Boil for 2 - 3 minute Remove the jam from heat.
- Beat with electric mixer for 4 minutes.
- Spread the spicy raspberry jam on the cooled shortbread (it's okay if it's still warm),.
- In a food processor add the reserved dough, cardamon, oats, almond flour, and pulse a few times you want you mixture to look and be crumbly.
- Next mix in almond slivers by hand.
- Spread this evenly over the jam.
- Bake for about 24 minutes, then return the pan to the wire rack.
- While the shortbread is still slightly warm, cut it into desire serving (usually can make 16 square).
- Once they have cooled completely (they are very fragile while warm), lift them from the pan with a spatula.
- Enjoy!
